Unfortunately it is the same in most of other part of the world, it is dangerous to assume that police is your friend.

Yeah, have a chat to my Iranian friends about their experiences with the Shah's police.
Not saying that America is that bad, but it bugs me when people explicitly state that only America has a problem with policing. It's pretty widespread.

It happens to be where I live, so I guess it seems less random to me.
Yes. Yes it is.

The advice very much isn't sound in any part of the world, and I suggest you go live in a place with a friendly police force for a while.
Your statistics prove nothing. You're taking a random country and asserting that the statistics for that country are true everywhere. Furthermore without arrest statistics it's a rather hollow argument.
